OP, you have NO idea what went on in your brother's marriage.  None.

If your brother marries his GF and they have children, you are setting yourself up to be estranged from their family.  Is that what you want?

Begin as you mean to go on.  [/quote]

I don't get the "it's now or never" type of attitude. OP or anyone else can take their damn time making their decision about when/if to get to know this new person. Just because they don't want to meet a new person at major family holidays doesn't mean never.

Soooo many cheating spouses take this attitude with family: ok, I did it, but now you forgive me and move on and I demand you accept it all...NOW! Sounds like a 2 year old. [/quote]

That's all fine and good but then the family has to understand that they are cutting their nose off to spite their face. Would they rather be right or have a relationship with their family member? Chances are if someone is serious with someone it is assumed that they will want to spend the holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving together so if they tell their family member they can't come chances are their family member is going to put their SO first and choose not to attend. So when this happens the family is really the only one losing out because they risk taking the chance of not seeing their family member at all. So which is it would they rather see their family member with the SO they don't like or not see their family member at all?
